Abstract:
An improved compact mobile phone based wireless plantar pressure monitoring system and software are proposed based on former progress, which can collect pressure data by sensors and circuit board, transmit data through Bluetooth wirelessly, and display and calculate the data on the mobile terminal. Conceptual experiments carried out demonstrate the feasibility and accuracy of the new system The system is expected to be widely used in the future owing to its portability, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness
